RAM not appearing is not in system properties

I have 3 GB installed on my OLD Windows XP

Lately, I noticed that when I checked my system properties it says that 2 GB.

But HWINFO32 shows 3GB

I ran memtest86 to see if my ram wasn't, but it happened.

Any ideas on why it only shows 2 GB.

I have a graphics Nvidia 9800 1024 MB if for some reason that subtracted from my total.

Thanks: GLenn

Glenn,

XP has always demonstrated that less than what actually moved. That's why a lot of people say that the maximum memory with XP is about 3.25 GB. This is not correct, he sees a maximum of 4 GB but reported figure 3.25 or some like that max. With 3 GB installed, it will report something like 2.25 GB. Win7 does not have this confusing method, it reflects the actual amount installed.

So why XP fewer memory reported? Because he deducted the space used for the video memory and stuff like that:

I hope this explains a bit.

  • Remote Desktop shows only not in system properties

    I'm trying to allow connections on a portable computer and connect via the internet on another.
    I've upgraded from vista Home Prem to Win 7 Home Prem 64 bit.
    I am using the MS. Remote Desktop feature  I read MS Help directions.  When I open the System Properties window and go to the Remote tab, I have the current text of Remote Assistance, but there is NO Remote Desktop block in the window.  It's just not there.  Same situation on another laptop that I have improved.  Help indicates that the feature is available in all versions.  Have not loaded all the features during installation, pourrais I be looking in the wrong place or it is not available in the NVA Home Prem?
    Can I access another computer remotely via the internet without this step?
    Also, how can I identify my full computer name (I prefer just using an IP address if possible)?  Not connected to a domain (just an internet connection and the Working Group), how can I find the remote computer?
    Thank you, Ken.

    I'm sorry, but Windows 7 Home Premium cannot accept office connections remotely on other computers.  This requires the complete edition or professional version.

    All versions of Windows 7 can connect to another computer using Remote Desktop connection.  That's what shows the help file.

    These programs allow Windows 7 Home Premium accepts connections remotely on other computers: TightVNC , TeamViewer , GoToMyPC .

    To use TightVNC, your computer must have an IP address or DNS name.  Dynamics of most of the ISP issue IP addresses, which can change at any time.  You can use a dynamic DNS service like DynDNS or No-IP to give your computer a DNS name.

  • only 3 GB ram usable in system properties

    I have a computer dell laptop that have 4 GB of ram on board...

    in the bios, that it shows that I have 4 GB, but in system properties, it shows that I have only 3 GB of usable ram... I use 32 bit windows7 ultimate.

    can pls help change the settings so that I can use all 4 GB of RAM I have.

    32-bit (x 86) architecture may not use more than 3 120 MB (3 GB) of RAM. 64-bit (x 64) architecture can. As such, there are no settings to change.
    There is an upper limit of 4 GB of RAM for 32-bit systems, but the largest amount of RAM that can be used by the operating system can vary between 3 and 3.5 GB
    This KB is good for Vista, explains why. See the workaround :

    System memory shown in the system information dialog box in Windows Vista is less than expected if the 4 GB of RAM is installed

    Furthermore, there is an hardware and drivers for Windows 7 forum or a forum for performance and Maintenance for Windows 7, that this question should be displayed instead of there, Windows Update forum. Please do the next time, pranavjoshi.
    Thank you!
